Karen stood on the roof of the bridge command room, looking at the long fleet lined up behind, his heart surging.
In addition to the huge iron armor flagship "imperial grip", other ships are also made of iron armor. Although these reconnaissance ships, frigates and supply ships are equipped with one or two groups of weapons and are less than one fifth of the size of the flagship, they still look very spectacular when hundreds of them are put together.
In the low sobs from time to time, the white smoke from the chimney stretches into a piece, and the sea water swings to both sides because of this huge fleet. The iron armor bow is more calm than the magic guide ship, and the up and down ups and downs when breaking the waves are more slight than expected, which is quite a momentum of indomitable.
As the flagship, the "imperial grip" is definitely the most eye-catching existence in the fleet. Its top is hung with a black wing flag symbolizing the northern empire. Its towering bridge and slender body make it different from ordinary Ming ships and armored ships. The towering turret at the front of the ship and the super main gun with a caliber of 406mm will launch 2700 pounds of super heavy armor piercing shells, Dozens of independent guns and machine guns can attack the enemy from any direction without dead angle. However, even if it is equipped with such a complex weapon system, the high-pressure steam engine processed by magic guide and propeller power enable it to sail on the sea at high speed without losing speed when its strength is amazing.
In today''s era, "the grip of the Empire" and its two companions, "the breath of the holy dragon" and "northern dawn" are definitely well deserved maritime overlords - even if their opponents are demon guided warships.
But
Clendot looked up at the dragon body hovering above the fleet, then lowered his head and sighed. The black wing empire was able to build such a powerful warship, but it was held back by personnel and talent factors. At this stage, the North cannot provide a large number of sailors, gunners and other sailors.
After all, even as the captain of the Empire, he now holds several posts, and has to go to colleges from time to time to teach. It is conceivable that there is a shortage of talents in the north.
This is also the reason why only one armored fleet of imperial grip is going to the ocean going plan. The personnel on "holy dragon''s breath" and "northern dawn" are still in the training and running in stage.
"I hope the development of ocean going plan can promote more people to join this industry." clendow thought: "after all, the sea is a man''s romance."
The destination of the imperial grip armored fleet was vilost, another continent that did not belong to ayladia.
The continent was already called this name a thousand years ago. At that time, the ocean going fleet of the Empire never setting sun set foot on that land. However, for some reasons, the southerners gave up their exploration and expansion of velost. At present, a more reliable statement is that the element response of velost is not active, or even dead, leading to the caster Magic guide products are difficult to play a role there; The local aborigines are primitive, stupid and difficult to communicate, but their physique is much higher than that of the aladian people. They have extreme hatred for outsiders. Once they contact, war will break out. After evaluation, the Empire judged that vilost was worthless and suspended further plans.
Later, the trading city states also arrived in vilost, which was confirmed by the historical data left.
At first, clendot went with an expedition caravan. They successfully arrived at the continent. Although they did not dare to set foot too deep, they succeeded in leaving charts and maps of a small part of veloste. Later, when they were recruited, he was dedicated to the Black Dragon Emperor.
When the Black Dragon Emperor got the chart, he just looked at it and signaled that he could leave. He didn''t show interest in the new world, which disappointed clendot and depressed his will for some time. But now, the black wing Empire, a huge emerging country, has finally turned its eyes to the deep ocean, the other side of the ocean, the vast new world outside Aladia.
There are several difficulties in cross sea navigation, including self supply, disastrous climate and sea monster attack. The changeable climate at sea and powerful sea monsters in the deep sea are the most worrying problems, but the more worried they are, the more they will encounter. When they receive an emergency message from the command room, Karen realized that he had work to do.
The sea climate changed suddenly, and the originally clear weather broke through the sky with a dazzling white light, rolling thunder and thunder. The tide and dark clouds immediately filled the sky, and the rain soon poured down.
"Sir, there is news from the reconnaissance ship. There is something ahead. Something is approaching us. There are a lot of..."
In fact, it goes without saying that credo himself can see through the magic guide survey system carried by the imperial grip that countless shadows under the seabed are approaching the ships. These things are pouring in from all directions, like sharks smelling blood.
"Notify everyone to prepare."
Karen said in a deep voice that he had been prepared for an emergency long before he left the port, and the fleet was not a soft persimmon. Everyone above had more than one experience of combat training and exercise.
Before the two sides contacted, the dragon circling above rushed into the sea. When it came out of the water again, it had a huge strange fish in its mouth.
Blackhia, the "dark twin", is the compatriot sister of the Black Dragon Emperor. Her mission is to accompany the ocean fleet to find the new world and provide the empire with detailed information about velost.
"Roar."
Blakia swallowed the strange fish into her stomach, her slender neck stirred, and then gave an excited cry. She had grown to 16 meters, and her body turned upside down in the sky and rushed into the sea again.
As the enemy approached, the dorsal fins of strange fish had surfaced in the sea in front of the fleet. At the same time, thick and strong contact arms covered with fleshy suction cups stretched out from the sea. After these contact arms pushed a reconnaissance ship open, they danced wildly and began to try to catch the roaring black dragon in the sky.
"Prodolk."
Kelendor''s expression was dignified. Unexpectedly, this octopus can be up to 100 meters long and has more than 24 touch arms. Its unique physiological system allows it to completely float out of the sea when needed. Its most remarkable characteristics are its terrible regeneration ability and deadly winding attack. At the same time, this sea monster can emit a kind of land creature that can''t receive sound waves, Enslave all the fish they come into contact with - according to the monster atlas, the strongest octopus can even hunt adult sea dragons. It is one of the most terrible monsters in the deep sea.
Some fishermen, pirates and other people who live on the sea even worship prodolk as a God and pray all night before going to sea.
